TransportedSF Food Forage & Eating

TransportedSF is channeling its inner foodie with a day of foraging in the sun!

Iso Rabins will be our guide as we forage local and sustainable cuisine in the east bay hills. He'll teach us how to identify wild edibles all around you, from wild fennel to mallow. Many of the plants we see everyday can beconsumed on the spot (although better after a quick rinse). We'll be taking a collecting walk, then making a dinner that includes some of what we foraged.

Iso Rabins is the founder of http://www.foragesf.com , a CSF with the mission to connect Bay Area dwellers with the wild food that is all around them. From wild mushrooms to acorn flour, there is a wealth of edible forage just outsideour doors that few people know about, and still fewer ever consume. The goal is to push people out of the supermarket, to get them trying new foods harvested sustainably and fairly by their neighbors.

This event is co-sponsored by Down to a Science, a monthly science discussion night in SF. http://www.sciencecafesf.com

Of course, this being Transported, there will be plenty of time to relax and enjoy the day.
